Now, without diving into much details, this whole incident happened because of Notch's huge ego. End of story.

Or vice versa...

I'd give you sources but im too lazy so instead ill just describe them and you can find em xD

Notch's Twitter - 3 or so times he said "I'm not lying" or "I never lied"

Yogscast's Response Video - They admitted they cussed in front of kids (to the other guy, 90% of minecon audience was children) then yogscast said that mojang approved their cussing shortly after in the same video (which by notch's response to this, i doubt it)

Yogscast's Reddit - This is where they talked about being annoyed that Notch didn't pay for their trip and also claimed something about Notch selling their panel to IGN and admitted to being annoyed about that as well

BONUS ROUND - Yogscast Minecon video shows them comparing Minecraft to a Plain Sandwich compared to what they believe their Yogsbox is "A giant Sandwich with everything on it and stuff like a cake on top" which shows that they were indeed conceded and kind of goes along with how notch claimed that they claimed they were what made minecraft

I'm assuming you didn't see the part where Notch said it was likely a misunderstanding.

I'm assuming you didn't see the part where notch responded to multiple accusations of lying with "I'm not lying", Plus, Yogscast never said they didnt do it, in their video they said they would never cross out a signature, Notch never said they did, he said they said they should cross out the signature. They even admitted to cussing in front of all the kids and then tried to pin it on Mojang (another sign). Also, Yogscast announced they were annoyed at notch when Minecon started due to the financial issues.

Uhm, just FYI, Notch never said that Yogscast weren't guilty of what he stated, he just said he was sorry for making it a public ordeal, i still think Yogscast did that, but Notch realized how many fanboys would rage at him if he pursued it, so he just let it go. You cant tell me that 1 year later when Minecon II comes, Notch will let Yogscast go around and be a big part of it, hes going to treat them like every other guest, its just how things are.

you know notch? you hang out with notch? you even spoke to notch? how do you know if hes a "kind man" if you haven't even met him. Not to mention that he was probably informed by others of what they did and or pulling it out of his ****. and lol! blow things out of proportion! hes acting like a 6 year old child! Wheres the evidence that he was there first hand seeing and watching what the yogscast did, wait till the second half of the story comes out till you start jumping to conclusions.

I have friends who have met notch, they have said nothing bad about him, he is a very nice guy, very humble. Yogscast on the other hand, there are multiple records of what they did, i'd like to see how they can cover this up with the 50+ stories about them other than notch. Honestly, if i made a game and then a group of small videogame celebrities claimed they were the reason my game was a success, i would be pretty angry too, they basically neglect all of notch's hard work and claim that they were more important than that.

Guys, I have owned Minecraft for over a year now, and I have read all of Notch's Blog Posts, he is a kind man, slow to anger, can take a joke, is humble, and very level headed. Yogscast must have seriously screwed up if they made that man angry. I mean come on, Notch didn't get angry when Bethesda SUED him, but now he is extremely angry at Yogscasts' behavior? I don't think Notch as the one to blow things out of proportion either, not only this but there are several confirmed reports of their behavior, now everyone got to see what they are really like, sad but true.
